FWIW, just returned from CUN on AA and had boarding pass printed at kiosk. Checked in online prior, then printed at airport, where they staple your customs paperwork to the boarding pass. Thus was able to skip the big line and go straight to Bag Check in, just to the right of the priority line. Took 5 minutes once I realized I didn't need to be in the big line at all.
They won't let you in the Bag check line without the boarding pass already printed, and the kiosks are slightly to the right of the AA section, so it was a little confusing, but their people were very helpful and friendly.
Security was a ghost town and very quick. (This was for 650AM flight, and AA site says to be their 180 minutes early, but hotel shuttle didn't leave till 5, so nerve wracking to not know if it would work. Turned out to be a breeze.)
